The Gifts of Gratitude

"I will be more afraid of spirit-unrest, of soul-disturbance, or any ruffling of the mind, than of earthquake or fire. When I feel the calm of my spirit has been broken by emotional upset, then I must steal away alone with God, until my heart sings and all is strong and calm again. Uncalm times are the only times when evil can find an entrance. I will beware of unguarded spots of unrest. I will try to keep calm, no matter what turmoil surrounds me."TWENTY-FOUR HOURS A DAY, Hazelden Meditations for February 21todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful

that my Mom is so accepting of her illness and her surroundings

that Honesty got me sober and Tolerance keeps me sober

for the Freedom of knowing I am powerless over most things

that I can often admit when I'm wrong without suffering too much pain

for a phrase that Mr H.K. reminded me of some time ago ..."When you need a job done, ask a busy person to do it"

that I am a busy person (LOL)

If you like a man's laugh before you know anything of him, you may say with confidence that he is a good man.-Fyodor Dostoevsky
